The García Legacy

From Havana to Estelí

José “Pepín” García is one of the most respected cigar makers alive. A master roller trained in Cuba’s legendary factories, he left the island in 2001, starting over in Miami with nothing but decades of expertise in his hands.

From a small workshop in Little Havana, Pepín built a reputation that spread through the cigar world by word of mouth alone. He eventually moved production to Estelí, Nicaragua — the heartland of the world’s finest tobacco — where the García family now operates their own farms and factory.

The name “My Father” came from his son Jaime García, who created the line as a personal tribute. Today, Pepín, Jaime, and Janny García run the operation together — a true family legacy built on Cuban-style blending with Nicaraguan tobacco.

My Father

The Original

The cigar that started it all. A box-pressed Nicaraguan puro with Pepín’s signature balance of power and finesse. Medium-full body with notes of pepper, earth, and dark cocoa.

Le Bijou 1922

#1 Cigar of 2015

The crown jewel. A full-bodied masterpiece wrapped in a dark, oily Nicaraguan Habano wrapper. Intense flavors of espresso, dark chocolate, and black pepper. The benchmark for the brand.

Flor de las Antillas

#1 Cigar of 2012

The most approachable My Father. Medium-bodied with a Nicaraguan sun-grown wrapper that delivers natural sweetness, baking spice, and cedar. A perfect entry point into the García portfolio.

The Judge

Bold & Full

A hefty ring gauge cigar built for those who want power with complexity. Rich, bold flavors of leather, dark roast coffee, and pepper with a sweet finish that lingers.

La Opulencia

Mexican San Andrés

A departure from pure Nicaraguan tobacco. The Mexican San Andrés wrapper adds richness and a different dimension — dark fruit, cocoa, and a creamy, luxurious finish.

García y García

Father & Son

A collaboration between Pepín and Jaime. This blend represents the bridge between two generations of cigar making — Cuban tradition meets modern Nicaraguan terroir.
